2016

I've kept this blog, on and off, since 2006. In 2015 I used it to chart daily encounters, images, thoughts and feelings about volcanic basalt/bluestone in Melbourne and Victoria, especially in the first part of the year. I plan to write a book provisionally titled Bluestone: An Emotional History, about human uses of and feelings for bluestone. But I am also working on quite a few other projects and a big grant application, especially now I am on research leave. I'm working mostly from home, then, for six months, and will need online sociability for company!

.. have wonderful blogs. I have links to two already in place; and here are two new ones.

One is a craft blog demonstrating that there is a wonderful life of social activity and artistic endeavour beyond the world of the thesis; the other is an away-from-home journal by a former student working in a small European town. A beautiful example of writerly blogging.

Ooh la la! Thanks so much for this, very glad you're enjoying it. It's a lot of fun to write, and probably keeps me from lurching onto the slippery slope that is alcohol dependency ... kidding! No seriously, all good here, as you said, it's a bit 'as expected' but not necessarily in a bad way - you know how kids can entertain themselves for hours with a cardboard box? It's like that. Kind of.
